Bay Area Pinball

The King of San Francisco – Results!

On Thursday, 44 players competed in the first San Francisco City Pinball Championship, hosted by Free Gold Watch. The turnout was awesome with lots of first-time tournament players as well as representation from all three bay area pinball leagues. Everyone was super cool and excited to put their flipper skills to the test.

Per (pronounced ‘pear’) Schwarzenberger took the helm as tournament organizer and really hit a home run with his first tournament. Everything went great.

We would like to thank our sponsors and partners for their help in making this event a success:

The side tournament on Whirlwind just cost some quarters, and players got three games to put up their best score. I was feeling good with my 10.5 Million, which held up for several hours, but as the top players got knocked out of the main tournament they kicked me down a few flights of steps in the side tournament. Andrei took both the main tournament and the side tournament for a huge victory.
